Forest of Shadows was founded in the autumn of 1997 by me Niclas Frohagen. After months of searching for members to form the band of my dreams I grew tired and decided to make it a solo-project. During this first period I wrote and recorded the songs “The Silent Cry”, “Under the Dying Sun”, “Moments in Solitude” and “November Dream”. These early recordings were later on featured on the ‘98-promo “Under the Dying Sun”.
In the beginning of 1998 Johan Svensson showed interest in the band and joined on guitar/bass. This new line-up didn’t last long since we had different aims and after some months Forest of Shadows was once again a one-man band. After Johan’s departure I started to redo the recordings of the old songs and in may 1998 the same four songs were released on the first real demo, titled “The Silent Cry”. During the release of the demo I got in contact with a friend of a friend, Micce Andersson, who found my band interesting and wanted to help me out. Almost instantly we wrote the opening riff of “Eternal Autumn” and started discussing some old songs to re-record.
In the beginning of 1999 we contacted Katatonia and asked them if we could do a cover of their masterpiece “Rainroom”. They approved and we recorded the song as well as a new version of “The Silent Cry”.

The first song i heard from Forest of Shadows is, of course, Eternal Autumn, and i must say that song is completely the kind of 'doom' i appreciate! Well build! I will absolutely listen to some more songs from the band. Very nice work!

My mother, one of the least metal people I know, walked in on me listening to "Eternal Autumn" and described it as "beautiful." Thank you so much for writing such things.
